I love how this thread turned into ALL CL's with high mileage when the OP asked only about '03 model year CL with over 150K mi.

Do people read the forum posts?

LMAO! I was thinking the same thing!

2003 CL-S6 myself, bought it last year (July) with 96K on it. Now has 102K on it. Will do major tune up and timing belt very soon. Didn't drive it in the winter, had quite a few ice storms here this past winter so drove my beater Land Rover and G2 6spd Legend coupe I had (sold feb). No problems so far other than the Michelins on it would not hook up, switched to Falkens and grip and feel is 10X better! And they're half the price of the Michelins, but they must be a much softer compound rubber as they're wearing out fast on the drive wheels.

What are your driving habits if you've cleared the 130k mark, all highway, stop and go, mix, cruse your car, smash the gas a lot, etc.

Ive got ya beat with 34500 on my 01 CL-S

Thats awesome we have almost identical mileage. How many of those miles are yours and what oil have you been using?

Have been using Castrol 5-30 Oil. I am the second owner - I've been driving it since it was 80,000 miles on it. The car does not leak any oil.

At 120,000 a new tranny was installed and I've been changing the tranny fluid every 10,000 miles.

Most of my miles are highway. I live in STL but have family in Chicago. I drive up there at least once every 2 or 3 months. Sometimes more during the holidays. Thats about 650 miles round trip, IF I don't go anywhere once I'm home.

I also drive about 40 miles round trip to work 5 days a week with about 30 of those miles on the highway.

Lastly, the fiance's house is about 35 miles away and I'm over there 2 or 3 times a week. Sometimes, I drive the full 3K miles in a month. Did that in December. Good thing I don't change my oil every 3K. So lots of driving, but all highway so it could be worse.
